Locking Into a Mob That Was Previously Locked

[Breaken]

I guess I will be more specific.

On Monday, Rustle wiped to Zlexak. While he was pathing back to his spawn point, Aftermath logged in a mage named Summgenie at PoM cubby. As Zlexak pathed past him, he got an engage message.

Aftermath decided this was a legitimate FTE.

When Awakened asked how they obtained the FTE with a level 56 mage, Detoxx replied:

Followed by two explanations of how the FTE was obtained.

Now, he wasn't trained, he logged in and Zlexak was pathing back. My first thought was, how can this be legal? But, I looked through the rules and decided to ask for clarification. I even took your side on the matter. The rules do say footracing is not a thing after a wipe. If this is how Aftermath plans to obtain new FTEs after a wipe, great. I would just like to be on equal footing. If you think this shouldn't happen, great. I have/had no intention of petitioning, I simply want to play using the same rule set.

Get your facts straight. We Re-FTEd Zlex after they wiped when he started pathing from the zone in on Florid. He then pathed back and aggroed our PoM mage getting set up to do the pull.

[11/24/2016 3:57:28 PM] Snackies P99: back on topic, I was thinking the following would make it pretty cut and dry

1) Wiping: Next 1 hour FTE goes to the guild that gets yellow text as a guild wipes, regardless if the mob has left the other guild's camp.

2) The wiping guild cannot claim a new FTE until the engaged dragon has returned to its spawn point. If it is claimed in this manner they have an additional 1 hour.

3) If a guild mistakenly gets FTE as another guild is wiping, they can claim it incidental, which allows the next guild on the FTE list (if applicable) a 1 hour lock if they wish.

Heres the rules we all agreed to, as you can see we abided by them if you refer to #1.

Rustle can confirm this, thank you.

My original post was vague for a reason. You stating that it didn't happen the way I described it is great, but it doesn't negate the question. Would you agree that cothing someone to PoM cubby to obtain a fresh FTE is a legitimate strategy? The clarification says footrace rules do not apply, however the rule itself doesn't address it at all.

Don't lock yourself into a position, detoxx.
